Has anyone else heard the "November" timeframe for first deliveries of the 2024 GLE63? Very disappointing if true....Mercedes has REALLY dropped the ball relative to others...

If it’s actually November, I’m asking for a small discount. That’s much too long and is way different than a 53 with a June build date as I originally had. I’ve already sold my other car and facilitating a rental until new one arrives, so this has to make $ sense for me.
Poked around a few dealers today (some of the largest by volume in the USA) and nobody has heard anything about allocations yet. So it’s up in the air entirely it seems.
Debating between alpine gray and obsidian Black. Wondering if anyone has experience with the red/black interior?
I am debating with those colors as well, but I think I am going with Obsidian black. My current car has red/black interior so what do you want to know.

i’ve seen some pictures online and it seems more orange than red, what do you think? Have you been happy with it since you’ve had it?
) , especially at night, and, strangely, with running boards and chrome. (Don't generally like the running boards.)
Spent a couple of Sundays wandering dealer lots, noticed which cars were least offensive when dirty, and O.Black stood out on that regard.
On AMG's, O. Black looks great with the Night Package and no running boards, IMO. There's a hint of red that increases the Blackness. MB's plain black hints at blue, which ruins it for me.
Made a very last minute decision for Obsidian, and I'm pleased.
(More pleased with the ARC, without which I wouldn't have bought the car. Bonus - red brakes are visually striking.)

Looks awesome. Looking to get the 21" also. Any opinions on the red/black interior?

No - I choose the diamond stitched Napa, black. It was only available in two colors.
A forum member @Ron.s was really angry that his "red" looked a lot more orange than the pics. Several others agreed. Ron switched to a Cayenne, and I think the seats were one reason.
I think I'd want to see the red in person before ordering.
BTW another color that I was interested in was the Green. Couldn't find one to look at. Now that I've seen one, it would have been a candidate.

how do we feel about 63s coupe in green? I have a ‘22 53 coupe in obsidian with no night package. I really like the green, but I’m concerned with resale as well.

From what I understand, Red Brake Calipers are no longer available on the 2024 GLE53, even when optioned with ARC. Only Available on the GLE63. Can anyone confirm this?

I actually reiterated with my dealer today (for the umpteenth time, haha). Way too many bad experiences at other dealerships, get a good vibe from my current guy.
Oh well, hopefully they open allocations before end of the month!
I also edited my build a bit after doing further research. Added all rear seat options and the carbon fiber engine cover. I’ll add the AMG fuel cap if it becomes available.

I ordered a 2024 GLE63s Coupe back at the start of Dec 2023. Due to the issues at the plant in Alabama, they may not start constructing orders until Aug/Sep 2024.
I am wondering if anyone knows if the 2025 GLE 63 will have any major changes. If it's better I might just go change my order to the 25 version. Not sure if 24 or 25 will be the last release of the v8 though.

Why wait? There are 1,019 model year 2024 GLE 63s (coupes and SUV) on autotrader right now. Surely you can find a spec that will suit you. Changes to 2025 are negligible from what I understand.
